“What is it Tris?” Lillian said, and there, right there you can almost forget, that this caring, beautiful girl is a criminal. She knelt in front of Tris and gave her a swift smile.
“I heard sound and got curious” Tris said and moved towards the tied and hazy outsider
“Who are you?” she asked, slowly lifting his chin to level with her eyes.
“Liam” he whispered and felt her shuddering at that name, closing her eyes.
She dropped her hand and got up, dramatically opening her eyes. She looked at him and said, “Well, it's sad that you share name with a pretty yet wrong girl.”
She turned towards Lillian and said, “Kill him” pointing at Liam by her chin.
“No, please common, look Maam...or small girl or..... whatever , just let me go, look I am the most innocent one in my whole College and in my family, please…….” Liam kept babbling completely ignoring the sound of laughter around him, he did stop when Tris shooked his shoulder and asked him to open his eyes.
"Aww, Liam, I am joking. Did you really got scared?" Tris asked holding her stomach, laughing.
"So.........you aren't their boss and you aren't the cruel, unforgiving, evil kidnapper?" Liam asked looking at her with his partly closed eyes.
"Jeez, no. Lillian is the boss and I am .....just consider me as her beloved sister. I may as well warn you that any scratch on me will lead to your death by her." Tris replied and sat next to Liam crossing her legs and looking at Owen, "So why is this cartoon here"
"Why do all your people keep insulting me" Liam asked rolling his eyes and laughing.
"I think it's your face." Owen said, scooting Tris in his arms and placing her on the old stool. "and missy, Liam is here by mistake, I did not knew that Liam was a girl."
"You know, you guys should start a show 'roast victim to death'" Liam said shaking his head in disbelief as Owen and Tris burst laughing smacking each other.
"Okay, so introduction is done, fun is done, roasting is done. Now can we focus on the real problem?" Lillian said, glaring at Owen.
"Look if Liam is here, in America, she will definitely go to New York. It's her dream place, why not spot her there?" Tris said, turning all buisness herself.
"Are you sure?" Lillian asked and somehow Liam knew that they were on a hunt for some serious girl and for some serious purpose.
"I am sure Lillian, about everything." Tris replied and nodded at her with strong determination, exhaling quietly.
"Fine" Lillian said turning towards Liam and thinking hard.
"Okay, let us go to New York then but we have to go by road." Owen said.
"Yeah, big bear we know about your flying phobia" Tris said rolling her eyes, " Any luck with the rudey by the way?" She asked dropping her voice so that only Owen can hear her.
Owen shook his head and Tris patted his hand understandingly.
